grsecurity forums

Hi folks!

Made I something wrong?

rm /etc/grsec/learning;
rm /etc/grsec/test;
gradm -F -L /etc/grsec/learning;
gradm -D;
gradm -F -L /etc/grsec/learning -O /etc/grsec/test;

After some time:
calloc: Cannot allocate memory

Some more infos:

Code: Select all

Seem so I need a little more RAM for my learning log.
I am right?

Viele Gruesse,
Peter.

how long did you have the learning mode running?
that's a 300mb log you have there...

mine post is useless, but at least I can say LOL!
300Mb is REALLY a lot!

fwiffo please stop making useless and retarded posts on this forum. Try something like forums.spammersheaven.com if you want to make stupid posts.

I do not really remember.
About 1 or 2 days or so!?

It is a 2,xGhz P4, 2GByte Ram, Crux-System with grsec and 160GB-RAID.
apache, qmail, mysql, tinydns,... and about 300 vhost-webhosting-server.

So, perhaps you mean 300mb is too much?
Okay, then I will learn a little bit shorter.

Thank you for your time!

Peter:

You may be able to shorten the raw learning file by grepping out things like UPDATEDB/LOCATE and similar file system intensive activites that happen over night. Then hand tweak an ACL for what you removed.
Perhaps you could also kill all the memory hungery processes during the parsing phase of the learning mode (not the initial one of course). Do you have swap enabled on this machine?

Yes, have a look at the top "free".

I saw that mine Apache generates for every php-call a tmp-file into /tmp and so the learning-log grows "a little bit".

Mine post was useless, but also your is, I was only expressing the fact that 300 is really a lot, and I don't see anything stupid in that, but if you consider that stupid, then you must have a problem.
If you also consider that I already said in the post that was useless, then you must have 2 problems, one for not considering that maybe you know absolutely nothing of me, and instead of asking politely to stop you've begun taking conclusions (even if I REALLY don't see a reason why something I wrote in the past, other than this post *that I still don't recognize as stupid*, should be considered as you said), second for insulting people that are only here to read, learn and maybe (in the limits of possible), help. First of all I consider all of this FUN, because I love computers/programming/security related arguments.
If you wanted to start a flame, maybe you've done the right thing.
I'm repeating myself, but I see it necessary: Don't insult people and/or make misjudgements on what you see, because I see it unnecessary to do so.
Now, please, since you're all-this-serious, let's go back to the original post....
